    "comment": "Lily Fontaine of the Leeds-based band shares, \"There's a lot of judgment that I had early on. Being a woman of color fronting a band shouldn’t even be a thing to talk about; we need to just get on with it – only then will the narrative around that change.\"\n\nFontaine has said this single is about a former partner: \"When I was with him I had writer’s block, and to add insult to irony, the only idea I had was for an R&B top line – the genre people always assumed I worked in.\n\n\"As soon as he ended it, I converted that top line into the lyrics and riff for 'R&B,' and took it to my three best mates. Putting the effort that you could potentially put into a partner, back into yourself and your career, is cool and sexy and gets you signed to Island Records and writing press quotes in a tour van in Holland and you get to meet Jools Holland.
